Challenges Faced by IT Companies in Canada

1. Complex Revenue Recognition

Licensing, subscriptions, and milestone projects each follow different accounting rules. Missteps can lead to compliance issues, delayed funding, or audit complications.

2. SR&ED Compliance

Poor documentation or aggressive claims can trigger CRA audit flags.

3. Managing Remote Teams

Paying cross-border contractors introduces payroll and compliance challenges.

4. GST/HST Across Jurisdictions

Selling software across provinces (or globally) complicates sales tax rules.

5. Bookkeeping Backlogs

Startups often delay financial management, leading to messy books and missed filings.

6. CRA Audit Triggers for Tech

Common triggers include high SR&ED claims, contractor misclassification, GST/HST errors, unusual expense claims, and rapid growth without proper documentation.

Don’t let these challenges stall your growth. Book a call with Dexado and stay ahead of tax and compliance risks.
